Kitchens, baths, flooring, roofing and outdoor projects for homes with a Humble address, from older houses near downtown to Atascocita, Eagle Springs and Walden on Lake Houston. We sort out the city, county and HOA rules before work starts.
Free written estimates. Clear, frequent updates from the first call to the final walkthrough.
Serving Humble and Atascocita
Many homes with a Humble address, including Atascocita, sit outside the City of Humble in unincorporated Harris County, where the county's development and floodplain rules apply. Inside city limits, the City of Humble reviews plans and permits remodels, fences and concrete work, and every contractor registers with the city first. We check which side of the line your home is on before you get a price.
Whether it's a hall bath in a 1980s home in Kenswick or a kitchen in Eagle Springs, we start with a site walk and send a detailed price in writing. You confirm every material and finish before work begins, and photo updates keep you posted through the final walkthrough. We coordinate every trade, and licensed trades are done by licensed subcontractors.
- The right sign-offs, in order. City, county and HOA approvals lined up before work starts.
- Every material and finish in writing. Confirmed with you before work starts.
- Updates with photos. You know what got done and what comes next.
Remodeling and Home Services in Humble
Kitchen and bathroom remodeling, flooring, roofing, painting and every other residential service we offer is available across Humble and Atascocita. We coordinate every trade, and licensed trades are done by licensed subcontractors.
Kitchen Remodeling
From a 1970s kitchen in Forest Shadows to a newer open plan in Eagle Springs, we plan cabinets, countertops, tile and lighting around how you cook, then coordinate every trade through the final walkthrough.
Bathroom Remodeling
Tub-to-shower conversions, walk-in showers with glass, new vanities and tile for Humble and Atascocita homes. A licensed plumber does the plumbing, and you choose the tile and fixtures before anything is torn out.
Whole Home Remodeling
Updating a 1980s home in Kenswick or Belleau Woods? We plan the kitchen, baths, flooring and paint together, on one schedule with one written price, instead of a string of separate jobs.
Flooring
Swap carpet and dated tile for one continuous floor through the downstairs in luxury vinyl plank, wood or porcelain tile, laid over a slab we check and level first.
Roofing
Repairs after hail and wind, and complete roof replacements in shingle or metal. We photograph every problem we find, so you can see the damage for yourself before deciding what to fix.
Painting
Inside and out, plus cabinets, with careful prep. In Atascocita South, a new exterior color needs the committee's approval first, so we help you choose a shade and submit it before the first coat.
Siding & Stucco
Fiber cement, vinyl and wood siding plus stucco repair, from a few rotted boards to a full re-side. We fix what's behind the damage and match the profile so the repair blends in.
Custom Carpentry
Media walls, window seats, pantry shelving and closet systems built for your space and finished to match the rest of your trim. Every piece is measured in your home first, so it fits the wall it was made for.
Window Tint & Security Film
Solar film from certified 3M installers takes the edge off afternoon sun on west- and south-facing windows, so rooms stay cooler without the blinds drawn all day. Privacy and security films are available as well.

Humble Permits and Approvals
Inside Humble city limits, out in Harris County or in a deed-restricted subdivision, each has its own sign-off. Here's what to expect.
You don't need to sort this out yourself. At the site walk, we tell you which of these apply to your project.
Inside City Limits
The City of Humble requires plans and a permit for remodels, new construction and changes to a home's interior or exterior, as well as concrete work and fences. Work started before the permits are issued is charged double the permit fees.
Contractors Register First
Every contractor working in the city registers with the City of Humble before permits are issued, renews each calendar year and shows proof of liability insurance. Licensed electricians, plumbers and HVAC contractors register their own companies.
Floodplain Rules in Town
Inside city limits, new construction and substantial improvements in the floodplain must have the lowest floor at least 2 feet above the 500-year flood level.
Atascocita and the County
Atascocita and other unincorporated areas with Humble addresses follow Harris County's rules. Any development there, including new structures, paving and fill, needs a county permit, as does a driveway built in the county right-of-way. Residential fences outside the floodplain are exempt.
Building Above the Floodplain
Out in the county, a new home or a substantial improvement on a lot in the 100-year floodplain needs its lowest floor 24 inches or more above the 500-year flood elevation. Your flood zone is one of the first things we look up.
Neighborhood Approvals
In Atascocita South, pools, patio covers, fences and exterior color changes need the Architectural Control Committee's approval in advance, and the committee has up to 30 days to decide. Atascocita Meadows also reviews exterior changes. We get the request in early so the wait doesn't hold up your start date.
Permit requirements can change. We verify current requirements with the applicable authority before work begins.

Humble Projects Where the Rules Matter
On these jobs, the city, Harris County or your HOA shapes the plan from the start. Each one links to the full service page.
Driveways, Patios and Slabs
Inside Humble city limits, concrete work needs a permit, and the city asks for plans showing rebar size and spacing. Out in Harris County, a driveway in the county right-of-way needs a county permit. We get the right permit before any concrete is poured.
Patio Covers and Decks
In Atascocita South, a patio cover needs the Architectural Control Committee's approval in advance, and the committee has up to 30 days to decide. Out in Harris County, new structures count as development and need a county permit too, so both go at the front of the schedule.
Additions in the Floodplain
Near Lake Houston, the San Jacinto River and the area's creeks, a large addition can count as a substantial improvement. In the city or out in the county, that means building the new floor above the 500-year flood level, so your flood zone is the first thing we look up.

Humble Project Questions, Answered
Do you work in Atascocita as well as Humble?
Yes. Kitchens, baths, flooring, roofs, decks and patio covers, all over Humble and Atascocita. You get a site walk first and a detailed price in writing after it.
Do I need a permit to remodel in Humble?
Inside city limits, yes. The City of Humble requires plans and a permit for remodels and changes to a home's interior or exterior, plus concrete work and fences, and work started without one is charged double. In unincorporated Harris County, the county's development and floodplain permits apply instead.
Is Atascocita part of the City of Humble?
No. Atascocita is in unincorporated Harris County, even though it uses Humble addresses, so Harris County's rules apply there. Your Harris Central Appraisal District record lists your taxing units, and if the City of Humble isn't on it, you're outside city limits.
Do I need a permit for a fence in Humble?
Inside city limits, yes. The City of Humble issues residential fence permits. In unincorporated Harris County, no county permit is needed for a home's fence outside the floodplain. Either way, your HOA may need to approve it first.
Does my HOA need to approve my project?
Often, yes. In Atascocita South, pools, patio covers, fences and exterior color changes need the Architectural Control Committee's approval in advance, and it has up to 30 days to respond. Our deck building page shows how an outdoor project runs.
